Hero CBP cop rushed to Texas massacre school mid-haircut with borrowed shotgun to rescue 20 kids including his daughter, 8, after wife who teaches there texted him saying: 'There's an active shooter. Help'
[Daily Mail, where America gets its news]
  • Jacob Albarado, a border patrol agent, was off work on Tuesday and was at the barber's when he got a text from his wife Trisha Albarado saying: 'Help'

  • Trisha, mother to their three children - sons Zachary and Jordan, and daughter Jayda, teaches fourth grade maths and science at Robb Elementary School

  • Albarado leapt up from the barber's, grabbed the barber's shotgun, and drove straight to the school, where eight-year-old Jayda and her mother were inside

  • A tactical team was already readying to take the room where the gunman was barricaded, so Albarado began searching for his daughter and clearing rooms

  • Two officers provided cover, guns drawn, he said, and two others guided the children out on the sidewalk

  • Albarado's friend was the heroic CBP agent who entered the classroom where Salvador Ramos, 18, was holed up and shot him dead
